Slimfast Weight Loss – A Review

Yummy

After I had my daughter I decided I wanted to lose all the excess weight I had gained from pregnancy and quitting smoking.  That amounted to about 60 lbs.  I looked into different things and finally decided I would try out meal replacement.  I liked the idea of meal replacement because it would help me manage my calories easiest.

I started all this when my daughter was about 8 months old.  In the beginning I lost about 10 lbs.  I’ll admit I fell off the diet wagon a few times and had trouble finding time to work out.  But my weight fluctuated over the next year constantly.  My daughter is 20 months now and I’ve still only lost 10 lbs.  Like I said I definitely messed up in a few times but over this large amount of time shouldn’t I have lost a little something more?

I think I would just buckle down at this point and make it work, but, well here comes the gross part.  If you have a weak stomach then don’t read anymore.  If you really want to know why not to use Slimfast then you really need to read on…

Okay, here we go…  The diarrhea that I suffered from while on Slimfast wasn’t just run of the mill diarrhea.  In the morning after I had the first shake of the day I couldn’t leave the house.  I had to be close to a bathroom, because I would have to run to make it and explode.  And I do mean explode.  My diarrhea would explode all over the toilet and then as soon as I stood up it would start all over again.  There were mornings where I would be in the bathroom 20 times before lunch.  And then my butt would hurt so badly.  I’d spend most of the day sitting funny. 

My daughter missed out on tons of events and going to the park.  All because I was scared I’d have an episode while we were out. 

So basically, yeah you’ll lose a little weight from using Slimfast but that will because you’ll be horribly dehydrated and getting exercise from running to the bathroom all the time.  I just couldn’t take it anymore.  I’m so happy to be done with it.
